Gosford Park meets one of those infinite time loop situations you may have heard about. The premise is pretty entertaining if confusing at times. It often felt like you needed a spreadsheet to keep track of everything. I'm a little disappointed in the way things wrapped up at the end, but I often am by these kinds of things. I loved the first 90 minutes of /The Maze Runner/ (the movie), for example. Kids have to run through a maze. Man relives a day at an old English estate over and over again. I like the constrained setting. But once the author starts trying to explain why all of this is happening, my suspension of disbelief collapses, and it's not fun anymore. Which is to say, I did like /Evelyn Hardcastle/, even if I think basically everything with the Plague Doctor could have been left out without really changing anything.
